The
Monument Avenue 10K will begin Saturday morning, and an estimated 40,000
participants will take to city streets. Numerous road closures and “No Parking”
zones will be in effect as a result.
Events
begin at 8 a.m. with the Virginia 529 Kids Run followed by the start of the
Monument Avenue 10K at 8:30 a.m. Street closures and “No Parking” zones go into
effect on some streets, such as West Franklin Street at 6 a.m. and West Broad
Street at 3 p.m. tomorrow. Cars parked along the race course will be
towed.
During
the event, Monument Avenue will be closed between Stuart Circle and Staples
Mill Road. Portions of other main streets will also be closed, including West Broad
Street, West Grace Street, West Franklin Street and Lombardy Street. (See maps
